Bobby Valentino Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Couldn't help but notice you shakin' that, twerkin' that thang
I wanna sample that, work with that, give me a try
Ain't no need for frontin' you want me
I can see it in your eyes (oh, oh, yeah)
Shorty wanna pop a bottle (Moet, Crystal, or some Alize)
She sho' look good to me (mama, baby from head to toe)
And I wanna take her home with me (it's plain to see)
I see you checkin' me
If you gonna make that move, better make it quick
I see you checkin' me
Never really been the kinda guy that will chase a chick
Shorty's all over me
But you're the only one that I'm tryin' to kick it with
I see you checkin' for me
I see you checkin' for me tonight
Here's my phone number, girl, you need to call me tonight
I'm usually not that forward, but can't let you pass me by
Don't try to play games 'cause I know what you really want
Body language sayin' yes, nothing left to confess
Shorty wanna pop a bottle (Moet, Crystal, or some Alize)
She sho' look good to me (mama, baby from head to toe)
Shorty look like a model (she's a perfect ten)
And I wanna take her home with me (so)
The night is winding down
Last call for a drink or two
I just wanna groove with you, baby
My car is whipped outside (outside)
Tell your girls you're leaving with me
'Cause this is where you ought to be, yeah
In Bobby Valentino's song "Checkin' for Me," the singer is sitting in the back of the club when he notices a woman who catches his eye. He is drawn in by her dancing, and he wants to get to know her better. He is direct with her, offering his phone number and telling her that he can see she wants him too. He notes that other women may be interested in him, but he only has eyes for her. As the night draws to a close, he invites her to come home with him in his car.
This song talks a lot about attraction and pursuing someone you desire. The singer is bold and confident, making it clear that he is interested in the woman on the dance floor. He even acknowledges that there may be other women after him, but he only wants the one he's singing to. The lyrics also speak to the power of body language and the importance of being confident and direct in pursuing what you want. The overall message is one of seizing the moment and not missing out on a potential connection.
